Sunday's treat

Today is sunday which means at the farm that you have a day of. Time to sleep in, do laundry and for me it means time to bake. And this takes a while cause we're with 10 people in one house and you're not just gonna bake for yourself! So the recipe I have for you today is for 16 cookies but if you've got a big family or friends coming over just multiply by 2. Like I did.
What do you need?
115 grams of soft butter
3 table spoons of smooth peanut butter
150 grams of brown sugar
50 grams of white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon baking powder
50 grams of macadamia nuts
50 grams of white chocolat
50 grams of chocolate m&m's
A little pinch of salt
125 grams of flour
A mixer
A griddle
Grease proof paper
A kitchen scale
A tea spoon of secret ingredient

As a start pre heat the oven at 175 degrees.
Put all the ingredients together in a bowl except for the nuts, the chocolate and m&m's and the flour. Get the mixer and mix everything together till it's smooth. Now add the flower and mix this together as well. Now add the secret ingredient to the mix. For me it's a teaspoon of all spice for a little extra kick. The mixture is ready. Time for  you to divide the mixture into 2 batches. Get another bowl and put one batch in. Now get a board and chop the macademians into small pieces and mix them into one of the mixtures. Get the griddle and put the grease proof paper on the griddle. Divide these into 8 or 6, with 6 you'll get bigger cookies, and put them in the griddle. I always to this with my hands. Make them a little bit flatter by gently pushing on them. Make sure that the griddle is big enough, for they will get bigger because of the heat. Let these bake for 13 minutes. For the second batch we're using the m&m's. Get another grease proof paper and put it on the bench. Divide the mixture into 6 or 8 pieces give them a little push and then gently push in the m&m's. When the first one is ready, get them out which the grease proof paper. Make sure not to touch the griddle. And put the other one which the paper in the griddle. The cookies are soft now. They will get a little bit harder. I like them chewy so that's why I put them in for 13 minutes. If you like them more crunchy put them in for 15-16 minutes. We still have the chocolate. Melt the chocolate. I always do this au bain Marie. When the chocolate is melted, get a spoon and drizzle the white chocolate over the cookies. You can all kinds of figures. Let this rest again. When it's time get out the second batch and let these cool off. Give it 10 minutes and it's time to eat your delicious homemade cookies and maybe share :-) !

Love,
